An Indian mother has donated her uterus to her 21-year-old daughter.
CNN reports that 43-year-old mother offered to undergo the procedure so that her daughter, who was born without a uterus, can experience childbirth.
The surgery was performed by a team of doctors at Pune's Galaxy Care Hospital in southwest India. The patient will have to wait a year before trying to become pregnant through in-vitro fertilization (IVF), giving her body enough time to heal and adjust to the new uterus.
It is however unclear if the patient will conceive.
